:P I win. I did one last launch last night… his still traveling at 2767.9m/s and his speed isnt dropping. After 8 hours and 25 mins, Im 84.111 million from planet earth. Im currently on a direct course for the sun and plant earth is no where to be seen. Here are pics to prove it :D.

2nd sub 0rbital h0p

0n my sec0nd sub 0rbital h0p right n0w.. Used a very very danger0us cluser 0f s0lid b00sters (6 0f em) f0r the b0tt0m stage.. the rest 0f the stages are liquid fueled. Just need t0 fine tune the launch pr0file, s0mewhat, and I might be able t0 make 0ne 0rbit, but I w0uldnt h0ld my breath, because an 0rbit still takes awhile..

830+km

830+km bef0re my return t0 the gr0und. Safely. With0ut dying and flying 0ff int0 space never t0 c0me back c0unts as dying ;p

Delta, let me kn0w when y0ur internal hull temperature is h0t en0ugh f0r a BBQ ;p

y0u can all als0 try y0ur hand at Velcro Rockets f0r 0rbiter. A little m0re inv0lved in setting up ( scripting that needs t0 be d0ne i think) then the fun way 0f Kerbal, but y0u sh0uld get a nice m0re realistic flight.

2nd 0rbital "h0p" c0mplete

well that was fun! 58 minutes, and I figure I went ar0und ab0ut between 1/2 and 3/4 0f the planet. l0ts 0f fun.

n0w let’s never speak 0f simulated space flight again ( the trip t0 Jupiter really killed my enthusiasm, try it and y0u will understand… well n0t s0 much “killed”, but lulled f0r a very l0ng time hehe)
